  Confused and hungry I stumbled home.... to..find.. my brother... had been beaten to death. I don't remember much of that night...and..the order is always confusing... but I do remember seeing my parents slaughtered as
well... I believe...or..I think Joey might have killed them while he was being killed...or the other way around......or......
something
Well in any case...my family was all gone... and I was not.... and i hated it... hated being "alive".... hated what I was once I was able to grasp it fully. I hated my master.... and Mortimas...or as I call him Granddad. I cursed the gift
and everyone else...especially the camarilla. I shunned them all even my brother in blood... Nathaniel... I broke the Masquerade by publishing a book and once the hunt was called I fled to France...
                   My own past is shrouded in mystery, even to myself. Born of a German father who made a trip to Ireland and met a young servant girl, I grew up in and interesting environment. I had a younger brother, Joseph, and a love for
the human mind. After finishing my schooling, paid for by my wealthy and abusive father, I left my home to take up an apprenticeship with Dr. Trent O'Connor at the infamous Carfax Abbey in London. It was here that I learned much about the human behavioral patterns, and of the defects of the mind.
    One night, while caring for a noisy inmate, I heard the good doctor hollar in pain and then the sounds of a small struggle. I spent the entire nightsearching the grounds for the dear doctor.. but it was no use.. he was gone. Soon after the "hospital" was closed down and I was forced to return home. It was upon my return to the familiar beaches of Ireland that Dr. O'Connor
found me.... and...embraced me.

Welcome to the dark abyss that is my insanity. Like a fire it consumes me,it burns through every fiber of my being. I know, unlike some of the more unfortunate of my kind, that I am crazy. Yet, not all of my atrocities can be blamed on on that alone. Many of the horrors  have committed I cannot remember, but so many more I see in my dream in glorious unliving color. The screams of my victims echo through my eyes, and have now for a century.I have only recently thwarted the control over me by my long dead brother Joey, who merely haunted me through the prank of an elder.
  My continuing search for answers has been a long one, and now, seeking help from the minds of others like me, the insanity threatens to.... to what?.....I don't remember...... Who am I lookng for?.....  myself perhaps.... no...someone who's appetite surpasses even my own....
